Who can apply to take part?

The “European Cities of the Reformation” project is aimed at collaborations between churches and the local authorities or cultural institutions. For example, a regional church could submit a joint application together with the city council or a local museum.

Are applications still open?

They most certainly are – the vast majority of events and activities are scheduled to take place during the anniversary year 2017, so applications will be accepted right until then.
